Hi, I just wondered what will happen if I am making backups of my windows 7 system from a laptop pc, then the laptop dies and I get a new one with windows 11 (or 12 ??)
Will I be able to recover my backed up files from the win 7 system onto the win 11 one ?
Or should I be copy and pasting my documents folder onto the portable hard drive as well as the backups?
Or something else ?
Thanks in advance,

Best regards to all from Greece.
I am after learning a bit of in depth theory regarding Win 7 64bit and the unsolved problem of small files pilling up at C:\Windows\winsxs\Temp\PendingRenames
At every run of sfc /scannow, the OS generates approximately 1869 files = file signature + name of file +file type = .cdf-ms
80% of generated signatures they have file size of 1Kb, the others vary up to 414Kb
In a second run of sfc /scannow, the total of files within \PendingRenames this gets...

I have heard that using the sticky keys method would cause one to lose access to any encrypted files on the account.
